The Curly Koa Series is the pride of Lanikai. The CK-C uses Hawaiian Koa that is especially prized for its curly grain. Lanikai makes use of this exquisite wood by handcrafting the CK series to exacting specifications. Grown mostly on the island of Oahu, the gorgeous red-hued wood used for the Curly Koa series make these ukuleles look as beautiful as they sound. In its most traditional form the CK-C is a Concert ukulele that owes its existence to Portuguese immigrants bringing their craft of music instrument building to Hawaii in the 1870’s. The Ck series comes with die cast tuning machines geared 14/1 for those players that demand greater control over their tuning. If you have never played ukulele before get ready for a world of fun. The ukulele is an addicting instrument that can and will be taken everywhere. The standard tuning on a Soprano, Concert, and Tenor ukulele is GBEA, and on a Baritone DGBE. If you can play one ukulele you can play them all! With the easy playability, and included instruction booklet written by Mary Lou Dempler you will be playing in a matter of minutes then you’ll see why people are saying Lanikai Makes Me Happy!

Curly Koa Ukulele
Great ukulele. Awsome sound and quality. It doesnt look anything like the picture they have but still looks very good. I have shown it to a few people and they say they’ve never seen one like mine and are very impressed also. I wouldnt say its for beginners because it is kind of expensive but if you have been playing for a while and enjoy it and want a nicer ukulele than you have this is one to get. Koa is the best wood for ukulele its what I have been told since i started playing and i agree after buying this one.

Will be enjoyed for many years!
Great price for a ukulele that will be enjoyed for many years. The strings are Aquila and they produce rich bell-like sounds. The koa is just beautiful. I tried other concert ukes in stores (mostly entry-level ukes)and this has a nice substantial feel. I am a beginner and can tell a huge difference in the sound quality between this uke and the others I tried. Did not have any problems with a buzzing sound like the other reviewer. It was easily tuned and I’ve already been playing it. A great price to boot!
